Heavenly bodies & Hootenannies

Seven days in NOLA nightlife and more!

Recovered from Mardi Gras? You’d better be, because the shows don’t stop. This week we have almost 60 burlesque, drag, variety and cabaret shows. There’s the circus-adjacent festival of Southern Sideshow Hootenanny, Purim and ‘Crazy Ex Girlfriend’- themed shows and not one, not three, but TWO shows that celebrate femme icons. Click here for your full seven-day nightlife listings.

Also this week:

• A preview of the Spring parade schedule, with St Pat’s, St Joe’s and the Easter extravaganzas

• We went to the opening night of Fiddler on the Roof - read our review of this beloved musical

AND ALSO!

We have a special offer for UAN subscribers this week. If you’re a fan of cabaret, this Friday (3/3) sees the return of the UAN-produced show Godless Constitution, featuring the amazing burlesque/drag/boylesque and comedic talents of Queen Qwan, Vivacious Miss Audacious, Trombone Squirty, Lefty Lucy, Eros Sea, Geneva Joy, Saya Meads and Lauren Malara. It’s at The AllWays Lounge, show at 11pm, $20 on the door but you can save $5 by booking in advance here and entering the code ‘UAN’ at check-out.

Hope to see you there! Thanks for reading, and as always, much love to you.
